Criteria Names Experienced Talent Executive Ana Recio to Board of Directors
LOS ANGELES, CA – February 9, 2021 — Los Angeles-based Criteria, a market-leading SaaS-based people analytics platform, today announced the addition of Ana Recio to its board of directors.
Recio is the SVP of Talent at SoFi, a personal finance software company with over a million members. Prior to SoFi, Recio was the EVP of Global Recruiting for Salesforce, where she oversaw Salesforce’s 750-person global talent acquisition team responsible for hiring 10,000+ people annually, and helped grow the company from 8,000 employees to 54,000 over 7 years through organic growth, acquisitions, and international expansion. Recio joins current board members Jason Babcoke, John Brennan, Kevin Cheng, Tony Miller, CEO Josh Millet, and COO David Sherman.
“We are delighted to add Ana to our board of directors,” said Josh Millet, CEO and Co-founder of Criteria. “Her track record as a talent acquisition leader, and her passion for using data to enhance diversity and make talent management more fair and equitable, are a perfect fit for Criteria’s mission. We look forward to working with her.”
Throughout Recio’s career, she has been instrumental in developing tools and programs that have helped measure quality of hire and mitigate bias in the interview selection process. She has also developed robust internal recruiting programs, which have resulted in higher retention rates and increased promotion of women and underrepresented minorities.
"I look forward to working with the amazing team at Criteria,” said Recio. “They’re transforming how companies make hiring decisions through their assessment platform, which effectively helps ensure a quality hire, broadens talent pools, and helps drive efficient and objective hiring decisions. I'm impressed by the business and culture that they've built, especially their focus on diversifying candidate pools while mitigating interview bias, which resonates strongly with me."
